Day Four Hundred and Seventy One

It is a way soggy day all day. My people friends are going out tonight to get their special get all dressed up treats. They will be all soggy. Maybe they will have scary umbrellas. Oh well.

I got in trouble today. There was a rabbit in my garden. It was hiding under the big fat bush. It will eat all my flowers and my favourite green beans. Nobody could see it except me. I could see it. I barked and barked but it would go away. I got in big trouble. 

We will not have any nice flowers when it is new flower time. Everyone will be sad. Oh well. It is not easy being a dog. In this house.

Craig would hardly go out at all. Too much rain he said. He said he would melt in the rain. That is not true. He does not melt in the big bathtub. 

Craig found my green ball under the big leather sofa. I cannot get on that sofa. It is known. Oh well. He got it for me and then we went out to throw the green ball just a bit. He did not melt. Ha.

Craig had to go and get Niamh and her dance friend from school. So their beautiful costumes would not get way too wet. Niamh's feet hurt in her very tall shoes. Oh well.

She is going out tonight in another costume with Emily and Cara. They will be soggy people. They will need warm cosy slippers and Irish tea when they get home.  It is known.

It is hard being a dog. Ask any dog. They will all say I am right. It is known. The rabbit is still there. Waiting. Me too. Ha.

I am going to the make me beautiful store tomorrow morning. Oh well.

Day Four Hundred and Seventy

When I got up there was a bit snow on the ground. It went all away before we got home from my walk.

Zita was very busy today. She practiced and practiced for her class at her university. I listened. I was a big help.

Niamh is going to be a lady from a while ago for Halloween. With a short dress. With a fringe. And a feather in her hair. Niamh and Zita were downstairs last night making it all nice.  With the loud machine for fixing clothes. I stayed upstairs and had a nap in the den. With Craig. 

Craig and I played throw the green ball a bit today. 

There were people digging a hole on my corner. I watched them. They waved at me. That is nice. I do not know why they dug the hole. Oh well.  

There were squirrels on my patio. And on my trees. And on the steps to my house. I barked and barked until I got in trouble.  I hate squirrels. Emmet came upstairs and he chased them all away. That is good. 

Zita and I went for a nice early walk this afternoon. Because she has to go to her university tonight. 

day Four Hundred and Sixty Nine

We had a nice quiet day. We had a nice walk.

My friend Jamie went to his make me beautiful store. He is not so big today.  I am going to my make me beautiful store on Friday. Oh well. I will come home all beautiful. I do not like going to that store so much.

We have all our electricity today. Emmet did not get up way too early today. That is good. He chased me last night. He wanted to steal my blue bone. Ha. 

He is writing and writing and writing stories for the nice lady down the street. All about another long ago war. 

Zita is very busy. She has to teach at her new university tomorrow. Lots to read. It is known. 

Craig is still a French policeman. A nasty person killed an old dog and his nice old man. That is sad The policeman caught her. They are in France maybe they will chop off her head.. That is what they do in France. Emmet told me. Too bad for them.

Craig and Emmet watched the television to see all the people who do not know how to tell the truth. Or answer questions. Craig said it is sad. The people forgot how to do their jobs without telling lies. That is not nice. They should get new jobs. It is known.

Niamh has a dance until late night tonight.

Day Four Hundred and Sixty Eight

I had a nice walk this morning. The pond is all empty and all the nice ducks flew away. Until next year. Oh well

It was a very quiet day. All the electricity stopped. All over. There was a fire up the street. Lots of very big trucks. All over my favourite streets. Big fix the electricity trucks too.

Emmet has a university holiday all week. He woke up way early because his make too much noise fan was quiet and he could not sleep.

He had to go to the university. All the computers in the whole house could not talk to the whole wide world. They need electricity to talk to each other. The university had lots and lots of extra electricity. So Emmet had to go to his university to use their electricity. Silly computers. 

Emmet has to have his computers talking to all the world or he gets a headache. Silly Emmet. 

The house was very quiet. Even the refrigerator where the carrot treats live was off.  No music. The house was so quiet I fell asleep on my cosy duvet. Oh well.

The nice lady's coffee store had all her electricity so Zita had to go there to get coffee and buns for her and Craig. I cannot drink coffee. That is why I do not go to the university. It is known. 

Craig and Zita laughed a lot this afternoon. When we had all the electricity again. They were reading all about the people who do not know how to tell the truth. Craig said the chickens were coming home to roost. 

That is not right. We do not have chickens at all. Sometimes he gets too confused. Because he is way old. That is why he always wants me to bring the ball back when we play throw the green ball. He gets confused. He thinks it is his game. It is not. It is my game. It is my rules. He is too stubborn. Because he is old. It is known.

Day Four Hundred and Sixty Seven

I had a very quiet day. Zita was off at her stay all day at the university class. We had a nice walk before she went off to her new university.

Craig spilled my water bowel this morning. He had to clean it all up. Ha.

I did not have toasts today. We do not have toasts on Sunday. We have bagels. From Mr. Kettleman's store. Sometimes when I go there the nice people give me bits they save for polite dogs who visit the store. 

On Sundays Craig gives me the last bit of his bagel. That is nice. I like toasts better.

I had to wait a long long time to play throw the green ball . Craig had to drink two coffees. Too much coffee. Not enough throw the ball. It is known.

Niamh stayed in bed way long. When she got up we played a lot. That is good. 

Then Niamh had to study all about a long ago war. The poor soldiers had to wear masks to keep them safe. Like Halloween I think. But no candy.

Niamh does not know what to be for her Halloween. She does not want to be a pumpkin. She wants to be a princess from Scotland who fights a big scary bear. If she is from Scotland she will have to eat porridge. Like Craig. Or the insides of sheep. Niamh will not like that. 

She should be a nice pumpkin. You do not have to eat awful things to be a pumpkin. Ha.

Emmet does not go out on Halloween.  Emmet and I stay here and give away candy to people with scary costumes. We are not scared. We have a cannon in the basement. Ha.

Day Four Hundred and Sixty Six

It is a bit of a soggy dog day.

Zita went to her stay at university all day class when we finished our walk. It was very early. She took her coffee with her. 

Niamh had a stay up late and laugh night with her dance a lot friends last night at her friend's house. I looked for her and she was not here this morning. Only Craig. Emmet was still asleep. He does not get up until way late in the morning. Or the afternoon. It is because his bed is way too comfy. Oh well.

Niamh and the dance friends came home for lunch and made the kitchen so messy I could not go in.  

She said the silly movie was way way too silly for her. People threw away toasts. That was not so nice. Toasts are to eat. Not to throw. I like toasts. 

Craig and I watched his football team in the den. I got on the cosy sofa with the big comfy pillows. Craig's team won. Ha.

Emmet is writing all about the old war where all the soldiers went to the wrong place and died. And their horses. That is sad. Horses should not go to war. They are too big. Everybody can see them.

Zita said her new teacher is nice. As old as Craig. Not as old as Uncle Bill. 

After dinner Zita and I played Blue Bone. Zita plays Blue Bone much better than Craig. He is not fast enough. Oh well. Too bad for him.

Day Four Hundred and Sixty Five

The stones in my yard are nice and cold. I get to lie on them. That is good,

I had a nice walk this morning. The cars were all icy. Craig did not like it. Oh well.

Craig drove Niamh and Emmet to school this morning. It was cold. Ha. I did not think it was cold.

Zita had to stop writing and start to read. Zita has to read lots and lots and lots of new stories for her new class.

She has another new class at her new university. She has to go on Saturday and Sunday. No nice pancakes on Sunday. Too bad for them. 

I saw my cousin Mattie on my walk this afternoon. He is older than me. And a bit bigger than me. And quieter than me. Oh well. He is still my cousin. That is good.

We had a little party tonight. Not a cheese party. Just Craig's mother and Paul. I got a cracker. No cheese. Oh well.

Niamh is going to an old movie where everyone dresses up and sings along. With her dance friends. It must be a very silly movie. There are no brave dogs in it Emmet says. Oh well.

Emmet's friend from way way long ago Mr. Cú Chulainn had a dog. They should make a movie about them. That would be nice.

Day four Hundred and Sixty Four.

We went for a long walk his morning. Zita had to put on her warm my hands gloves. The grass was all slippery and white. I like the smell. Ha.

It is good that the make my house warm machine is fixed or Zita would freeze. 

Everybody is still writing for the universities. It is very busy in my house. It is good I have my comfy duvet so I can help.

Uncle Bill came over this afternoon so everybody could stop writing and drink coffee and eat gingerbread. And laugh. They said we are surrounded by scoundrelly people who take way too much money and have forgotten how to tell the truth. I always tell the truth. Dogs do not know how to lie. Those people must not have dogs. It is known.

Uncle Bill drove Emmet to his university. In his big truck. Uncle Bill had to put his very loud motorcycle away. It is too cold for motorcycles. He likes his motorcycle. That is good. 

Craig's hockey team won last night. He was surprised. Me too. Craig's teams never win.

The black dog with the white tail came on my street again. I scared him away.  He should not come on my street. I have a nice street. Not a street for possessed dogs. 

Zita and Niamh are going to trade you my clothes night. They take clothes they find hidden in the closets and bring home new clothes to hide. It is a good game. 

Day Four Hundred and Sixty Three

It is our way too early day. I do not get to go on our walk until Zita gets home from taking Niamh to her way too early in the morning class. Craig does not make my breakfast until he gets home from driving Emmet to his university. I was nearly too hungry to go on my walk.  Oh well.

We had our toasts way late today. It was nice toast. I had to wait and wait until Craig finished his coffee before I could play throw the green ball. 

Zita has her university tonight. Lots and lots of writing. I helped.  

Zita made gingerbread to pay Paul to fix the all the lights in the house. That is good. 

Today is Sava and Chris and Emmet's eat downstairs and play games. They got a new one today. That is nice. They are going to have pizza from Mr. Tony's. 

Craig is still is a French policeman with a nice dog. It is a short dog. He lives outside. To guard the ducks. That is nice. 

Day Four Hundred and Sixty Two

The make the house all warm machine man came. I only barked a little. He told me he has dogs on his farm. And cows. That is good.

Niamh had a sick tummy and a sore head so Craig drove Niamh and Emmet to school. That is what fathers do. 

It is a very nice day. I played catch my green ball when Craig got home. Then he had to have his lunch. Oh well.

He is still a French policeman with a nice dog. And lots of food. But no girl friend. Too bad for him. No one to make him Irish chicken. Or cheese cake. Ha.

I have to go to the make me beautiful store. Zita says I am way too furry. Oh well. I do not like the make me beautiful store. It is far away and it is not my house. 

I am beautiful when I leave. Then I can come home to my comfy duvet and my cosy bed. Going to the make me beautiful store makes me tired. I always have a nice nap. And I get treats for being very brave.

Emmet finished writing about way old monsters. Now Emmet is writing all about another old war. It is the war where they invented nurses. That is good. They have nurses at Dr. Smith's hospital. They are nice. I do not like to stay there. It is known. 

Zita has to write about good and bad things. That is easy. Dogs are good. Raccoons are too bad. If I could read I could go to university. And eat donuts. Ha.

Day Four Hundred and Sixty One

A bit of a soggy dog day.

Our make the house all warm like breakfast toast machine is broken. We have to keep the doors closed so all the outside does not get in.

The make the house warm machine man is going to vist us tomorrow morning. I am not going to bark at him.

Everybody is still writing for their universities. Lots of writing.  I helped Zita move the cars. Then we went for a ride. 

Craig's French policeman has a nice dog. That is a good book. Rabbits eat his green beans. That is way he has a dog. To chase the rabbits away. Ha.

Niamh is learning all about the old war with the generals who would not listen so well. Way too many soldiers died she said. That is sad. She said our soldiers were very brave. We took ridges and would not give them back. Ha.

Craig says there were lots of my Bouviers in that old war. We pulled little carts to take hurt soldiers to the hospital. We were a big help. More help than the generals Craig says. That is known.

Craig and Emmet bought fat cookies for everyone at the make good bread store. Not for me. Oh well. 

Tonight is Niamh's dace late at night night. 

Day Four Hundred and Sixty

We all get up late because it is Sunday. That is nice. I had a nice walk. Then I helped Niamh with her homework. No dance a lot until tonight.

Everybody is writing. Except Craig. He just reads everybody's writing and makes changes. And he throws me my ball. He is still very stubborn.

He is finished being a Viking. He did not get his castle back. Maybe he is dead. He does not know. That is a way silly book. Oh well. Now he is a French policeman. With a very old car and lots of nice food. 

Craig says they make very good food in France. That is nice for the policeman. Bouviers come from France. I have never been there. I get French cheese from Mr. Nicastro's nice store though. Especially the way smelly cheese. I can smell that cheese from far far away. It is good cheese. I do not get it all the time. Oh well. 

Niamh and Emily and Cara went to Emmet's university to see interesting things. They did not tell me what they were going to see. Oh well.

Niamh and Zita and I went for a little car ride. To take Niamh to dance and to be a big help. That is what dogs are good at. Especially me.

Craig's football team won. He was way surprised too. Ha.

Day Four Hundred and Fifty Nine

It is Saturday. I do not have toasts with Craig on Saturday. He has to have breakfast with all his way old friends. Oh well.

Zita cut the lawn all short. I got in the little car so I could be a big help. I like sitting in the car. I can see everybody on my street. They do not see me. Ha.

It is a soggy day.  I was a very soggy dog. I had to stay in the kitchen and lie on my new fluffy towels. Oh well.

Everybody is writing for the universities. I had a nice nap on my cosy duvet. Squirrels do not have cosy duvets. Ha.

Niamh's dance friends came over and made lunch. They are very loud and laugh a lot. They were so loud I could not have a nice nap. I had to come out to see if they dropped any cheese. Oh well.

There is lots of thunder and lightning. I do not like that very much. I get on the big bed on my comfy duvet. Thunder cannot get you when you are on your comfy duvet. It is known.  

Zita goes out in her big nice car in the thunder. I do not like that. She should stay home on my comfy duvet. 

Craig and Zita have to go out to a birthday party tonight. I am in charge Zita says. No one will listen to me. Oh well. It is hard being a dog in this house.  It is known.  

Day Four Hundred and Fifty Eight

It was a very nice day. I had two nice walks.

My tummy is all nice. I did not have to go see my friend Dr. Smith. That is good.

Craig came along with us this afternoon for a long walk. We went to a bunch of stores. I had good lessons. I saw lots of nasty squirrels. I did not chase any of them. Nearly. Oh well.

My corner is way too busy. Car and trucks all over. Lots of people making the new houses all finished. 

And they are making movies in my park. I do not know what it is about. I am not in it.  They have so many big noisy trucks. And way big lights. And the pond is empty. That is good. The way big lights would scare all the ducks. Maybe they will scare all the nasty raccoons who hide in the park. Ha.

Emmet walked all the way home from his university today. His insides are getting all better. That is good.  I do not chase him all over the house before dinner any more. Maybe later. 

We still have lots of leaves on the trees. I chase the leaves when the wind blows them. I always catch them. Ha.

Day Four Hundred and Fifty Seven

Big trouble today.

I went on my walk this morning. The nasty raccoons tried to murder me. They pushed a garbage can over and pulled out the turkey garbage on to someone's lawn.

I ate some. Before Zita could stop me. Oh dear. She is afraid I will get a way too sick tummy. She called Dr. Smith. He said they have to watch me. Oh dear. 

Raccoons hate dogs. I was tricked. Oh dear. I hope I do not get a way too sick tummy.

 Craig could only give me little bit of breakfast. I played throw the ball a lot. Craig had to watch me. It was still nice.

Niamh forgot her phone today. At home. Niamh has to have her phone or she get a headache. It is known.

Craig is a Viking again. He has to find a new castle. Nasty people stole his old castle. That is what Vikings do. Steal people castles and their boats. 

Craig should read books about nice people who take their dogs for long walks. And find treasure. Those are good books I think.

Craig and Niamh watched a movie last night all about the bad generals in a long ago war. Way too many people died. They were bad listeners. It is known. 

Craig's great Uncle Austin rode a horse in that war. With a Lord. He had a sword too. He did not die. That is good.  

Day Four Hundred and Fifty Six

It is our early day. Oh well.

All the water is leaving the ponds. The ducks will be sad. They will have to go on vacation.

When all the water is gone and it is way too cold people can slide all over the ice and not fall down.

Niamh's nice dance friend took her to the too expensive coffee store. To study. Ha.

Zita's nice big car is all ready. Mr. Scottie's called to tell her so. That is good. 

I could not ride in the black shiny car. It was the rule. Oh well.  The very nice men made our car nice big car way beautiful again. Zita gave them hugs. Craig said he did not mind.

Zita is writing and writing again. It makes us very tired. I have a cosy duvet. It is known.

Chris and Sava and Emmet came back from their university. They brought their fizzy drinks with them. Going to university is very thirsty they said. Ha. 

Day Four Hundred and Fifty Five

We had a nice quiet day.

It was so way beautiful last night I had two walks. Craig and Zita and I went for a long walk to see my friends the ducks. They were all sitting on their stone fence beside the pond. If I do not chase them I get treats. That is good. 

I got a nice drink of water at the water machine beside the other pond. The pond where the ducks swim.  I got treats for learning my lessons. I get lessons every walk now.  I did not even chase the cat who ran in front of us. Silly cat. Ha.

Niamh got her say all you know all about big numbers test back. It was perfect. Her teacher was very happy. So was Niamh.  Me too. I jumped up on her new bed so she could see my waggly tail. My tail is not way too big. It is known.

Sometimes I am perfect. Not all the time. Oh well.

Some boys came to my door selling popcorn. I did not know them. We gave them money. We do not get the popcorn for a long time. That does not seem right. I think Craig was fooled. Too bad for him. 

Emmet is nearly finished writing all about the stories of monsters and swords from way long ago. The stories were all told by the Vikings Emmet said. Craig has not been a Viking for a long time. That is good.

Zita has to go to one of her way long meeting tonight. She will not fall asleep she told me. Oh well.

Day Four Hundred and Fifty Four

All the cheese parties are over. That is good. I am a bit tired. 

I had to stay up way late late night. Cheese parties last a long time. 

I was very busy taking care of our cheese party friends. And Paul. They are guests. I have to look after our guests. It is my job. I got cheese treats for being a big help.

I went for a long walk today. It was very beautiful outside. All the leaves are different colours. It happens every year. It means that we will have snowy days. Oh well. I got treats today. 

Our cheese friends have to drive all day to go to their house. My house is right here. That is good.

Emmet and Zita are very busy. They have to work like crazy people Zita said. Lots and lots of writing for the universities.

Craig only threw my ball a bit today. He says that I am stubborn. That is not true. 

Day Four Hundred and Fifty Three

I had a very happy birthday. It was very nice.

We are going to have a big cheese party tonight to thank the whole world for everything good. Like my bouncy ball and elephants and my nice house. It is known.

Everybody went out for lunch. Except Emmet. Emmet is writing all about way old heroes and monsters. I stayed here to guard him. Monsters are very scary. It is known. But we have swords. And a cannon. Ha.

It is a very big cheese party. We put sheets on the table. And we have a turkey. I do not think it is one of Uncle Bill's too smart turkeys.  We have pie too. I do not eat pie. Emmet gives me bits of cheese. That is why it is a cheese party. 

Our cheese friends brought Niamh and Emmet brand new pyjamas. Niamh's have a bear bottom. Ha.

They brought me presents too. Craig and Zita got hugs. Ha. 

I got treats from the nice lady who leaves me treats on my walk. That was good. 

Day Four Hundred and Fifty Two

I am way late tonight. 

I had a birthday cheese party. It is my birthday today. Emmet told me so. It is true. I am three years old today. 

I got presents.

Our cheese party friends came to my house this afternoon. They brought me a new Red Ball. That is good. They came to my cheese birthday party. They are going to sleep in the den. I cannot get up on their bed. Oh well. 

Craig sang Happy birthday to me. He does not sing too well. Oh well.

I got a new collar too. It is bright blue.

There was a party in the duck's park today. With very loud drums. It was not my party. They did not have cheese. Ha.

I had cheese. Emmet gave me some for my birthday. 

Day Four Hundred and Fifty One

I had a busy day. It is a get up early day. Zita did not get up early. She has Craig's run away nose. Oh well.

The little car is all quiet now. Mr Paul's store made it all quiet. That is good. 

We cleaned and cleaned the whole house today. We are going to have a big cheese party. Our cheese party friends are going to visit us tomorrow. They sent us flowers. Flowers we cannot grow in our garden.  That is nice. They are nice friends.

We have to make the house all beautiful and clean. And tidy. For the cheese party. I was a big help. I did not get in the way at all. 

Craig went to the make me tidy store for his haircut. For the cheese party. 

Niamh had a holiday today. She slept until late. Then she took me for a nice walk. She is teaching dance at her dance a lot school this afternoon. Niamh is always busy. Or asleep.

Emmet is studying all about things nobody know anything about. That is silly. He thinks it is interesting. He told me so. Oh well. I liked the stories about the Punics more. They had elephants. It is known.

Day Four Hundred and Fifty

Zita says I am doing very well in my training. I get to practice my not-pulling walks every day now. I get treats when I am a good listener.

Some times I get way too excited. It is all the squirrels fault. It is known. No treats for not listening. Oh well.

Today is bring all the newspapers to my house. I did not bark too much. That is good.

Craig and I stay in our house to make sure all the nice people take the right piles of newspapers. It is an important job Craig said.

Zita took lots and lots of papers to all the stores where we live. Sometimes I go in the stores on our walks. Like Mr. Nicastro's smelly cheese store. It is a good store to visit. 

In the summer they have green beans in big baskets in front of the store. One time I stole a bean and got in trouble. Oh well.

Sometimes I go into the buy your coffee here store. It is smelly too. Not a good as Mr. Nicastro's.

Niamh gets a holiday tomorrow. I do not know why. That is good. Maybe she will take me for a nice walk with Cara and Emily.

I got Craig to play throw the ball a lot today. He is not sick today. That is good. I am good at catching  the ball. It is known.

Day Four Hundred and Forty Nine

It is the way early day. Everyone gets up way early. Me too. No one else is awake on our walk. Not even Jamie.

Then I guard the house when everyone drives everyone to way early school. I keep the nasty squirrels away. 

Emmet told me he has his course all about way old knights and rascally kings today. 

Today he said they were counting everybody in way far away England. So the king could remember who he gave all the castles to. Silly kings. 

Emmet wants a castle in way far away. That would be nice. I am not afraid of ghosts. Just garbage cans with wheels.

No elephants in this course. That is sad. I think I would like elephants. I like the stories about elephants that Uncle Bill tells. 

Zita has her make everyone think course in her new university. She is giving a present to everybody who thinks the most tonight. That is nice.

Mr. Scotty called Zita. Her big nice car will not be all beautiful for a while. Something underneath broke in the accident. Oh well. 

Zita says they are a very nice make your car beautiful store. The men make her laugh. They are like stores in way far away. That is nice. 

They have own made hamburgers. They give them to their friends. That is kind. I cannot have hamburgers. I would have a sore tummy. Oh well.

After university Emmet and Sava and Chris came to our house with boxes and boxes of food. Mostly pizza. And donuts. They went downstairs to Emmet's cosy room to laugh. And eat too much. Except Emmet. I eat more than Emmet. Ha. 

I went down stairs. They were sitting in the comfy chairs. I did not wait for treats. They do not share. Craig shares. That is why we have breakfast together. It is known.

Craig and Niamh will make very special sandwiches for themselves. On very new bread. And nice Mr. Nicastro's cheese. I will get carrot treats. After my dinner.

Day Four Hundred and Forty Eight

It is a very nice day. Zita and I had a very long walk. That is good.

Then she took her big nice car to Mr. Scottie's make you beautiful store. They said she could have one of theirs for a while. It is way shiny black but not so big. I cannot get in it. It is the rule. Oh well.

Craig and I played throw the ball a lot. Craig is not so sick today. He is not covered in Kleenex today. That is good.

Niamh did not have a good day. It will be better tomorrow. I will talk to Saint Newton tonight when everyone is asleep. Except Emmet. Maybe I will go to her school and eat nasty people. That would be good. 

Zita says I would get in trouble. And have a sick tummy. Oh well.

Craig's car has to go to Mr. Paul's store. A part of it rattles a bit. Mr. Paul's store is there just to fix that.  And change your tires for when all the snow comes and makes everything way too slippery. He has a very fat person on the roof of his store. It is a silly store I think.

Day Four Hundred and Forty Seven

It is a very soggy day. Rain everywhere. And wind so big that it must have blown all the squirrels way far away. Ha.

Craig's nose has run away. He had to stay in bed till late. Then we had our breakfast toast. 

He did not throw my ball a lot today. He was too sick. I helped Zita study. My cosy duvet got washed. Just for me.

Tonight is Niamh's late late dance a lot night. I have to wait up for her. It is my job. 

We got more food for the cheese friends. They are going to visit. Soon. They get to sleep on the comfy bed in the den. But they get the good mattress. 

I was so soggy this afternoon I had to get into the bath tub to clean my paws and my tummy. Oh well. 

Zita is going to take her nice big car into Mr. Scottie's make it beautiful store. That is good. It makes a funny noise now. Oh dear. 

Day Four Hundred and Forty Six

It is a rainy day. I had a nice long walk this morning. Before it was all soggy. After lunch I went out and when I came in I was a bit of of a soggy dog. Oh well.

Zita had to go and get all our food for our nice dinners. And food for our cheese party friends. 

Craig and I had our toast breakfast by ourselves today. I got two pieces of the toast.

Emmet went out and came back all soggy. He had to get his special kind of ice tea. Ha.  

Niamh had a nice shower so she can go to her toe dance and not be a smelly Niamh. Ha.

Zita made the bathtub all squeaky clean. I could not help. I wanted to help. 

I had to go in the den and watch Craig's teams loose. He should get new teams. I can catch my ball very well. Craig's teams do not catch the ball very well. It is known. 

Craig and Emmet still have run away noses. Too much sneezing. 

It is getting dark way too near my dinner walk time. I do not like walking in the dark so much. Lions hide in the bushes at night Emmet said. I was a bit soggy tonight. Oh well.

Day Four Hundred and Forty Five

It is Saturday. I do not like Saturday. 

Craig goes to breakfast with his way old friends on Saturday. He does not have breakfast toasts with me on Saturday. Oh well.

We played throw the green ball a lot before he went out. That is good.  

Cara and Emily got one of our chairs for watching the way big television. It was the big blue one. That is good. 

Everyone should have comfy chairs. We have way too many. All over the extra living room.

Last night Niamh and Zita took Niamh's old bed and put it out side and brought up the big old bed from Craig's mother's old house. It is very high. Not too high for me to jump up on. It is a comfy bed. 

I have a comfy bed too. That is good. And a cosy duvet. Of my own. I do not have to share. Craig and Zita have to share. Ha.

I had a nice day. I miss my toasts. It is known.

Day Four Hundred and Forty Four

I had a bit of a soggy dog day. Oh well. It rained a bit on my walk.

Craig got Emmet's cold and stayed in bed this morning. He could not throw the ball until way late in the morning. Oh well.

Emmet's nose did not run all away. That is good.

Craig and I had our lunch toasts today. He did not get up for our breakfast. I was very patient.

We are having our own pizza tonight. Not Mr. Tony's. 

Craig and Zita helped Emmet read way old letters from people who made up their spelling new each time. Emmet is like me. He likes things to be the same way each time. Even spelling. That is why we are friends. And he has a comfy bed. 

Niamh is at her dance until way late night.

I almost staved to death tonight. Craig forgot all about my dinner. Zita had to remind him. Oh well.

Day Four Hundred and Forty Three

I had a very quiet day. It was a beautiful day.

Zita took her big nice car to a make me beautiful store. They will make it beautiful when the store is empty. And they can take care of it. 

Every day Craig and I have breakfast. He always get way too much toast so I get the little bits that he cannot finish. That is good.

Then Craig and I played throw my ball.

Niamh had a test at her dance a lot school all about way way small things. So small even I cannot see them Niamh said. Oh well.

Day Four Hundred and Forty Two

I had a bit of a busy day.

Emmet has a cold and had to stay in his comfy bed this morning. 

Zita and I went for our nice walk this morning. Then Craig and I had our breakfast toasts and looked out my watching window. Craig had his coffee again.

Craig and Zita had to talk to everyone in the world to find a nice make me beautiful store for Zita's big nice car. 

I had to stay here and guard Emmet when he was asleep in his comfy bed. He has a run away nose. Oh well.

Niamh went to her dentist. Craig drove her. She can only eat soft things tonight. Like ice cream milkshakes. Or Apple crumble.

Tonight is when Zita goes to her new university.  She made nice sandwiches for Craig and Emmet so they won't stave to death. They forget how to eat when she is not here. They are silly.

Dogs never forget how to eat. People are silly.

Day Four Hundred and Forty One

We had an accident day. Oh well.

I was a better listener on my walk this morning.

Niamh had in accident in the forest and fell off her shiny bicycle and hit her head. She had her go fast helmet on. That is good. She is home now in her own comfy room. That is good.

A silly man made a bad turn and hit Zita's nice big car. Zita said he could not read the way very big signs that said no turns here. Now the car has to go to the make me beautiful car store.

Craig took Emmet to see the very nice doctor at the hospital. He said that Emmet's insides were very pretty. In just a little while they will be beautiful. That is good. 

Emmet got his book from the other university. Now her can read it all and know everything about Irish singers way way long ago.  

That is way we have universities. So people can read all about long ago ideas so we will not forget them at all. And eat doughnuts. It is known.
